This sounds stupid and I'm trying my best to figure out what's up but I'm, as usual straggling to do so. Anyways, here is my dilemma:
I play somewhat "ok" with my revo 12.4 shaft when playing 10 ball, 9 ball and 8 ball.
Here's the rub for me...... I just started back (after MANY, MANY years) playing 14.1. As I said, I play OK 10 ball... etc...etc... with the revo but, I can't play 14.1 with my revo.
It seems that the revo is best suited (to me) for power play. I am having a HUGE problem with a lot of shots that come up in 14.1. More or less........ shots that I have to "feel" or I'm screwed and my already PITIFUL run..... ends even sooner.
On the other hand, I have a JP cue with the pro-lite... 11.75 shaft and 14.1 is much, much easier with that cue.
One shaft is CF. The other is laminated or whatever they call it. They have the same type tip but the results are hugely different in 14.1 for me.
Also, I play much better 14.1 with a 58" cue. In 10 ball etc... I play much better with a 65" cue.
Anyone else experience that?
If so, what did you do? Do you have a "14.1 cue" and a different cue to play rotation games with?
I don't remember having this type issue before I stopped playing. Then again, that was ballpark of 26 years ago....
Thanks for any and all advice,
Rake
